Yukimura: Hey, how long do you think all three of us can be together like this? -- Sanada: We’ll be together forever, if that’s what you want.

And then he punched his shield into Merlin’s chest, knocking him flat to the ground.
Merlin hit the grass hard enough to jostle his blade from his fingers. Breathless and amazed, he watched Arthur step over him, kick his blade away, then point his own sword at his throat.
Above them on the hill, wild applause broke out, and a few cheers besides.
“That was cheating!” Merlin rasped out.
He wanted to be angry. He really did. But he couldn’t manage it. Not in the face of such a brilliant piece of strategy. He couldn’t believe Arthur had outwitted him. And in the face of a magical attack, no less.

“That wasn’t cheating,” Arthur told him. “That was knowing your opponent.”
“What’s that supposed to mean?”
Arthur grabbed his forearm and hauled him to his feet. “With you, there’s always only one solution. One emotion-based, headstrong, poorly thought out solution. That’s your problem. You never think through all the angles. All the points of weakness. You just rush headlong into danger.”
“That’s… not true,” Merlin protested, though not with much certainty.
“It’s a common hubris of men of great power,” Arthur said. “They forget they’re not invulnerable.”
Merlin couldn’t find the words to respond, too busy trying to process the compliment so clearly stated beneath the criticism.
Arthur grinned at him, a lopsided thing full of affection. “From now on, leave the strategy to me. I’m far better at it than you. Now go sit down. You look like a strong breeze could knock you over.” (c)

“Trouble hanging onto your sword, sire?” Merlin asked, as Arthur retrieved the weapon from the ground. “Maybe I should give you some pointers.”
“You, give me pointers.” Arthur straightened, scoffing at him. “In what? How to fall down?”
Мerlin picked up a training sword and shield from the pile at his side, and stood up.
“Seriously?” Arthur asked.
“Are you scared?” Merlin asked loudly.

Arthur glanced over to the group of men and women who stood taking refreshment by the table Merlin had set out. “Oh, by all means,” he said, and gestured to the clearing.
While Arthur retrieved his training sword, Merlin strode down to the lakeside, his shield raised to hide his face, his blade lifted, saying: “beþence gefyllan áflygennessa.”
A quick surge of magic, small and controlled, had him turning to where Arthur stood ready upon the lawn, sword raised, a deeply smug and superior smirk upon his lips.
Merlin took his place facing him, raised his sword, and waited.
Arthur twirled his sword.
Merlin’s blade repeated the same motion.
Arthur stilled, frowning curiously at him.
“Don’t worry, I’ll try not to hurt you too badly,” Merlin said loudly.
Arthur rushed forward with an wide swing that had Merlin’s shoulder wrenching in its socket as he twisted to meet Arthur’s strike. Again Arthur attacked, this time three rapid blows, Merlin’s blade yanking his arm through the air to meet each one.
“Well done!” Danyl called.
Arthur glanced at the applauding crowd of students, then narrowed his eyes at Merlin. “What did you do?”
“I have no idea what you mean,” Merlin informed him.
“Really?”
“Really.” (С) click
